Why take this tour?

Discover the Camino de Santiago by bicycle, along the Portuguese Way starting from Guimarães! We invite you to do with us the Camino de Santiago by the main route used by the Portuguese people, the Portuguese Way, which runs along the same route as the old royal road between Oporto and Valença, a city on the border with Spain. The pilgrimages to Santiago date back to the 9th century, when the tomb of the Apostle Santiago the Greater was discovered. Since then, people from all over the world have ventured into various and different ways, taking risks and deprivations to visit and venerate Santiago. It will be a pleasant trip along 205 kilometers by rails, paths and roads that will take us from Guimarães, the birthplace of Portugal, to Santiago de Compostela, one of the main centers of Christianity. Our priorities are your satisfaction, comfort, and safety so you will make the tour on mountain bikes with and without total suspension, of the latest models from reputed brands.
